Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has confirmed that the French outfit will attempt to sign Alexandre Lacazette when the Arsenal star's contract expires this summer.
Lacazette, 30, is entering the final months of his deal with the Gunners and is looking likely to leave north London at the end of the campaign. The Frenchman is able to speak to clubs outside of England about a pre-contract agreement.
The striker joined Arsenal for £47million from Lyon in 2017 and French reports this week suggested that the Ligue 1 side were looking to bring their former captain back this summer.
